Where can I find statistics related to the Lifetime Risk of Developing or Dying of Cancer?
SEER Cancer Statistics Review, 1975-2007 includes Lifetime Risk Tables (PDF), by cancer site, showing the probability (expressed as a percent) of a person of a specified race, sex, and age (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, or 60) being diagnosed with the specified cancer within the next 10, 20, or 30 years or within their remaining lifetime. Fast Stats is an interactive tool to access key SEER and US cancer statistics by age, sex, and race. Cancer Query Systems: Probability of Developing or Dying of Cancer provides access to a database of pre-calculated statistics, allowing users to view these statistics without downloading and installing DevCan. However, the DevCan software provides greater flexibility than this online database, including the ability to analyze your own cancer data. DevCan – Probability of Developing or Dying of Cancer provides PC-based statistical software and datasets to calculate the lifetime risks statistics.
